Use this cheesy concoction
either as a filling in a wrap-style snack, or use as a dip with
tortilla chips or cut-up vegetables.
Queso
Fundido
- 2 green onions and tops,
sliced
4 large cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons butter
16 ounces Jalapeño Jack cheese, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
2 to 4 tablespoons milk
8 chorizo (spicy sausage), casing removed, cooked until browned,
drained, crumbled
2 tablespoons chopped tomato
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
16 flour tortillas, warm
- Sauté onions and
garlic in butter in medium saucepan until tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
Add cheese; cook, covered, over medium to medium-low heat until
cheese is melted, 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir
in milk if mixture is too thick.
- Spoon cheese into bowl
or small chafing dish; sprinkle with chorizo, tomato and cilantro.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons mixture on each tortilla and roll up.

Tips: It may be necessary
to add more milk if mixture is too thick for dipping. Browned
ground beef, seasoned to taste with taco seasoning, can be substituted
for the chorizo.
